Rent & eviction protection

Is 1426-1430 Irving St rent-controlled?

San Francisco's Rent Ordinance caps rent increases and provides eviction protection for most residential units built before 1979 with 2+ units. Here's how this building scores.

Built before 1979
Built 1946
2 or more units

Statewide backstop · AB 1482

California Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Even when a building isn't covered by local rent stabilization, the statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) may still apply. It caps annual rent increases and requires the landlord to state a legal reason to end most tenancies.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1946
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Local rent control likely takes priority. This building appears to fall under the local ordinance above, which is stronger than AB 1482. Where a local just-cause ordinance applies, its rules govern instead of the state cap.

AB 1482 does not apply to single-family homes and condos unless owned by a corporation, REIT, or an LLC with a corporate member; to owner-occupied duplexes; or to deed-restricted affordable housing. The Act is in effect until January 1, 2030. Not legal advice — see the California landlord–tenant guide.

Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 1426-1430 Irving Street, owned by Kafong Holdings LLC, was constructed in 1946 and contains three units. The property has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, with the most notable being the conversion of the adjacent ground floor space (1428 Irving) into an animal hospital in 2021, which required substantial construction work valued at over $238,000. This project included new partitions, ceilings, lighting, and associated mechanical systems, along with the installation of a solar PV system in 2024 with 42 modules totaling 18.060 kWdc. The building has received consistent maintenance attention, including a recent split unit installation with duct work in 2023, reroofing projects in 2023 and 2011, and various plumbing upgrades such as a complete copper repipe in 2009 and multiple fire safety improvements in 2021-2022.

The property has experienced some recurring issues with graffiti, particularly during and following the COVID-19 pandemic, with multiple incidents documented between 2020 and 2025, though recent cases have been marked as "Not Offensive" and are still open. The building has also undergone several infrastructure improvements including a new backflow system, fire sprinkler installations, and various HVAC upgrades including the installation of a gas furnace and condenser in 2021. A noteworthy environmental health inspection was conducted in December 2024, and there was one tree-related incident in 2021 that was resolved by stump removal. The property's recent history suggests active management with regular maintenance and upgrading of facilities, particularly focusing on fire safety systems, HVAC improvements, and the integration of sustainable technologies like solar power.

Risk rating

How 1426-1430 Irving St's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of SF DBI inspection data — notice of violation filings, complaint history, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that DBI inspectors will issue a Notice of Violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
73rdpercentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 403 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Building permits (past 7 years)

Number of permits pulled at this address — construction or renovation activity over 7 years.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.
